How to Pack a House When Moving?

Planning a Move: Where to Start and How to Stay Organized

When preparing for a move, it’s essential to start planning months in advance. For those who have never experienced moving before, the question “How do I pack up a house?” can be confusing. However, by following a structured plan and working with experienced moving professionals, you can ensure a smooth, damage-free, and efficient relocation process.

Ordering Moving Boxes

After deciding to move, one of the most crucial tools during preparation is a supply of clean, sturdy moving boxes. Depending on the volume of your belongings, you can either source boxes yourself or request them from your moving company. Proper packing is key to preventing damage during the move.

Be sure to label each box with the name of the room it belongs to in your new home — this will make unpacking and settling in much faster and easier. Additionally, getting rid of unnecessary items early will reduce your workload and minimize the number of boxes required.

Creating a Packing Plan

Moving is also an opportunity to declutter. Go through each room, assess what you really need, and dispose of or donate unnecessary items. This step is especially important if your new home is a different size or layout than your current one.

When planning your packing process, consider organizing items into the following categories:

• Valuables

• Fragile items such as figurines or artwork

• Home textiles (bedding, linens, etc.)

• Clothing and shoes

• Kitchenware

• Electronics

• Frequently used items

  
  

Distribute empty boxes room by room, keeping them organized to streamline both packing and cleaning.

Preparing Clothes and Home Textiles

Using wardrobe boxes can be a lifesaver during hectic moving days. Place hanging garments in bags before transferring them to these boxes to protect them from dust and moisture. This makes setting up your wardrobe in the new home much easier and more enjoyable.

Pack summer and winter clothing, frequently worn and rarely worn items, and accessories separately. Careful planning of the unpacking order will also save time. To ensure a smooth transition into everyday life after the move, we recommend working with a professional moving team. When it comes to transporting textiles, duffel-style storage bags are ideal.

Packing Furniture and White Goods

Furniture and appliances should be packed using appropriate materials and techniques, preferably by trained professionals. These may include:

• Stretch wrap

• Bubble wrap

• Foam boards

• Protective moving blankets

  
  

Large furniture, chandeliers, and household appliances that need to be dismantled will be disassembled by Bafa Group’s experienced team, packed securely, and reassembled at the new location.
